At a certain point coffee no longer works as a pick-me-up but instead leads to a loss in concentration as well as increased nervousness and irritability.
According to Lucie Nusbaum from Germany’s Association of Nutritionists, once this breaking point has been reached, further cups of coffee no longer lead to improved concentration or performance.
Instead the contrary occurs, which is the clearest difference between coffee consumption and suffering from an addiction.
Alcoholics, for example, experience the desired effects from alcohol with every extra drop.
The so-called coffee addiction is no more than a habit, according to the nutrition expert. Despite this reality, many people suffer from withdrawal headaches if they don’t get the required amount of coffee in a day. Coffee gives a short-term boost to the body’s blood pressure and when this boost fails to arrive then this can affect the head.

For that matter, too much of anything is bad!
